James K Polk video This morning we spotted an interesting brown sign informing us that the President James K. Polk State Historic Site in Pineville, North Carolina was nearby. We made a quick decision to reroute, found parking for our rig, and headed inside to learn...
After one last errand, picking up a delivery at The UPS Store in Franklin, we hit the road and made our way to the Charlotte/Fort Mill KOA in Fort Mill, South Carolina. It's close enough that Bill & Dove could join us for a meal at the nearby Blacow Burgers.
This is definitely a hidden gem. Downtown RV Park is a private RV park located on the edge of downtown Franklin, North Carolina, only about ten sites. After getting ourselves organized and out of the house we headed here for a two night stay. It was a fun time getting...
Up to this point we have reveled in unstructured trip planning but these are not ordinary times and we are behaving in an out of the ordinary manner. We are making campsite reservations. With the exception of two one night mid-week stays, we have reservations for the...
What a delight to go hang out for a couple of hours in a winery knowing that the trek home is walking just a few yards to our camper. That's just what Mike and Shelly offered us at The Rusty Nail in Martinsburg, West Virginia last night. Lucky for us they joined...
Our travels yesterday were a rather lengthy 234 miles ending at the Delaware Water Gap/Pocono Mountain KOA in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania and a yummy dinner of Chicken Cordon Bleu at Muller's Diner, an eatery recommended by a local as we checked in. But even before...
Today's travels have taken us a bit north of US-20 to Abbott Farms in Baldwinsville, New York. It's another great Harvest Hosts site. In accordance with Harvest Hosts Etiquette, we made a point to arrive early enough to be able to shop in the farm store. Since it's...
Today's route is US-20 eastbound across New York State. It's one of our favorite highways. Our first trip along this stretch was in September 1976 driving a 1971 Pontiac LeMans from Niagara Falls, Ontario to Glens Falls, New York. If memory serves us correctly we...
Last night when we were chatting with Laura, we mentioned how much we enjoy Johnson Estate Wines in Westfield, New York and she agreed, especially their Red and White Ipocras, spiced wines. It’s the oldest farm winery in New York State. We’ve visited a few times since...
After an overnight in Canton and an opportunity to finish transferring our gear from truck to trailer, we're on the road. This truly is the beginning of Summer Ramble 2021. Our first stop is Courtyard Winery in the town of North East, Pennsylvania. It's one of more...
Planning a trip? Dreaming of travel? Perhaps some of our adventures could inspire yours! Over the last several years we’ve had the distinct pleasure of many cross country journeys traveling though the Lower 48 in tents and our various teardrop campers as well as an amazing Alaska adventure that did not involve a camper.

Sorry for no pictures with this post. We haven’t been blogging recently because we’ve run into software issues preventing us from uploading photos. Hopefully we’ll get it sorted when we’re back on our home turf but we want to share a list of at least some of the...
Another week of incredible adventures in and around London.
It’s a cultural experience, certainly not a daily ritual for Brits or anyone else, but the Full English Breakfast is a delightful and truly filling meal.
